It’s that time of year again. Time for New Year’s Resolutions and among the most popular every year including 2010 is lose weight and/or get fit. If that’s your 2010 New Year’s Resolution, read on.
Whether you plan to join a gym, go to the gym more often, use your on-site workout center, participate in a sport, take up yoga, or walk/jog during your lunch hour, you’ll certainly be needing a good gym bag to carry your clothes, shoes, water bottle, and other necessities in. Don’t settle for that old duffel that’s been balled up in the back of your closet for years. Start off the new year right with a new gym bag.
Don’t think you can afford a new gym bag? Believe it or not, there are plenty of affordable gym bags out there and many are far from your average boring duffel bag. In fact, gym bags come in a variety of shapes. There are gym totes that come in great colors and designs, gym sacks that are basically drawstring backpacks perfect for when you only need to carry shoes or a few items, and specialized bags like yoga bags or water bottle holders designed for specific fitness equipment.
What should you look for when shopping for fitness bags and sports bags?
- Quality construction - if you’re rough on your bags, look for something with solid seams and a durable fabric.
- Size - size matters. If you plan to stuff your bag in a locker, look for a smaller gym bag or, even better, a locker bag designed to fit in a standard locker.
- Organization - do you need pockets for necessities like wallet, keys, and makeup or can you get away with a bag with one large compartment?
- Reviews - read customer reviews to get a sense of what other users think of the bag once they’ve received it and used it.
- A solid return policy - in the unlikely event that you don’t like the bag once you receive it, make sure you can return it. Sites like eBags.com, for instance, offer free returns.
Check out some of our favorite fitness bags below that will help you on your way to that weight loss/fitness goal.

Think you need to make a New Years resolution to get in shape? Well, if you don’t wait until then, you may not have to. Now is a great time to start working out. Why? Well, for one, the weather is cooler so if you workout or play sports outside, you won’t get so hot. Secondly, if you’re thinking about walking or jogging, now is the time of year when being outdoors is beautiful. You can see the leaves changing. Finally, autumn is a great time to get in shape because when the holidays come, you won’t feel as guilty eating that extra cookie or slice of pie.
Whether you’re into yoga, aerobics, weightlifting, running, or sports, you’ll want to find a sports bag that fits all of your gear. For working out at a gym, gym bags are the best choice. They’re versatile enough to hold your water bottle, clothes, shoes, and anything else you need. Gym sacks are also a popular choice. These drawstring backpacks are perfect for holding just a few necessities. Gym sacks are also perfect for storing your shoes when you put them in a larger gym bag so they don’t damage the other bag contents. Yoga bags are ideal for yoga as they are designed to carry your mat. Other bags you’ll want to consider include hydration packs, fanny packs, ball bags, and racquet bags.
